(chanting funeral prayers)
You're here?
Dad is no more.
(prayers continue)
How can I console you when I can't even console myself?
He was like a father to me too.
Now he's dead...
My dad, Gazi, didn't die.
He was martyred while saving a child.
Gazi means warrior. And warriors are martyred.
Dying and being martyred are different things.

They're very different.
You've built a different world of your own.
And everyone loves you for it, Noorjahan.
I feel so alone.
Dad would come home once in 15 days.
But at least we'd meet.
Now he's gone.
He's never going to come home.
Will you live in my world with me?

Noorjahan!
What's the good news? Can't wait to hear it!
Hurry up and tell me.
First, have sweets.
In the name of God.
Now hurry up and tell me.
God has some good news for us.
You are about to become a dad, and me, a mom.
You're...
Do you realise what you told me?
This is the best news of my life!
No more worries now.
It's time to celebrate!
You and I will celebrate!
I declare the next two days as holidays!
No work for two days.
I'm going to stay with you 24x7.
Every single second.
Selim!
Next trip cancelled!
Rohu fish from Chalan Beel.
One bite and you'll fall in love.
You won't find a tastier fish.
No, no, Abbas.
This fish is from Jamila's pond.
Not from Chalan Beel.
I know it's from Jamila's pond.
But when Noorjahan cooks, it's as good as Chalan Beel fish.
-Tangy lentil soup. -Thanks.
-Oh, forgot to share some good news. -What?
I've got a job. Making quilts.
At Matrichhaya.
What's wrong?
Choking... Fish bone...
What happened?
-Fish bone stuck... -Water! Or plain rice.
Be careful.
-It still stuck. -I know. Open your mouth.
Better?
-Yes. -Hmm.
You...
Why did you have to take up a job at Matrichhaya now?
What do you mean? Why not Matrichhaya?
That's fine... But Matrichhaya...
You have a business at home. Why go anywhere else?
I can't give you an explanation.
I don't owe you one.
What can I get you?
Eight means not.
-Soup? -Eight...
What is it?
Why are you always giggling?
Phooljahan.
The groom's family is visiting tomorrow.
I better not see you laughing in front of them.
And you.
If they like her, get her married off soon.
I'm done.
Boss.
I need to talk to you.
My mind's stopped working. We'll talk later.
It's really serious.
What happened?
I...
I love Phooljahan and want to marry her.
Who drives the truck?
You.
What do you do?
-I'm your trusted assistant. -"Trusted"?
Hmm?
Is this what a "trusted" assistant does?
Eyeing my sister-in-law?
Boss and assistant become brothers-in-law?
There's a limit to fantasies.
Boss, I love her.
One more word about this and I'll beat you to pulp.
Go straight to your room.
Ask them.
These guys too.
Excuse me.
-Have you seen her? -No.
No?
Ask at that hotel.
This girl?
I can't take photos but you can?
Have you seen her?
What a babe!
Your phone's ringing, uncle.
Khorgun uncle!
-Khorgun uncle! -What's your problem?
Can't even let me go to the loo in peace!
Your phone's ringing.
Answer it. See who it is.
Impossible to see anything on your phone.
Shut up! Give it to me.
Get lost!
Father, Sundori here.
Sundori! I was worried about you.
No need to worry. All good.
I'm at a lovely hostel.
How are you?
By God's grace, I'm well.
Give me your number, dear. My phone's screen is broken.
And are you eating well?
Give me your address. Let me send food.
I don't know the number by heart but let me see.
-Chhotu. -Yeah.
I'll talk to later, dear.
Give them water.
Put out some plates.
Welcome.
Hello, Khorgun.
Apparently your meat curry is world famous.
Do you feed the cattle some special grass?
It's got some magic. It's bound to be tasty.
The magic is in his hands, not his cattle.
Khorgun's customers are mainly truck drivers.
They all call him uncle. Universal uncle.
Khorgun is very talented.
You're right.
Truck drivers and people of the area consider me a guardian.
I've helped so many assistants become truck drivers.
A few days ago, Abbas came.
Abbas, the driver.
I got him married. Now the girl considers me her father.
Who did Abbas marry?
Sundori.
A beautiful girl. Lives up to her name.
Even an enemy would be bound to appreciate her beauty.
If you saw her, you'd definitely fall for her.
I just spoke to her on the phone.
What's wrong?
That bloody Abbas ruined my plans!
-Sundori is my sugar daddy! -No, no.
-You are her sugar daddy. -Oh, yeah.
I'm her sugar daddy!
Where is she? Call her!
My phone's screen is broken.
It fell into a pot of porridge.
No way to know who's calling.
Oh really?
When will she call again?
I don't know.
Hey, take him to the warehouse.
-Right now! -Why-Why me?
-Take him away! -Let me go!
Why me?
I didn't do anything.
Please...
Shut up.
-Please let me go... -Quit whining or...
I've known Phooljahan for a while.
Beautiful like her name.
And just as talented.
Great cook too.
Get the coconuts.
We want to fix the wedding right after the rains are over.
I understand, but until Sohail is back in the country...
He's a very busy man.
The richer you are, the busier you are.
He built a house like the city folks.
Complete with beautiful tiles that sparkle in the sun!
I wonder whether he'll at all be able to make it for the wedding.
How will the wedding take place without the groom?
On video call.
Times are changing, my man. This is the new trend.
Are you serious?
An online wedding?
Can you see everything on video call?
Backdated.
These guys are ancient. Absolutely clueless!
Even married life can be enjoyed on video call.
That's what his first wife did for five years.
First wife?
He got married a few years ago.
But she's a loose woman.
One's character is what matters, right?
-He's married? -Yes.
Phooljahan, coconut off!
Got us a match with a married man?
Leave! Right now.
Noorjahan, you're making a mistake.
He's very rich. Phooljahan will be well-off.
Aren't you going to say anything?
Why are you still here?
Abbas, you're making a mistake.
-Get the chopper! -Let's leave, uncle.
-Chop off their heads! -I'll kill you!
You can't escape!
I won't spare you!
Fraud! Cheater!
A married man? How dare you!
Abbas, you fraud!
How dare you cheat me?
Noorjahan.
How much do you love me?
Why do you ask?
Just...
If you ever misunderstand me, I'll be shattered.
Tell me what you did.
No, didn't mean...
I didn't do anything.
But if you hear things about me...
know that I was a victim of circumstances.
Hmm.
Got it.
Your two-day holiday is over.
Go get dressed.
Drop me at Matrichhaya on your way.
No... Matrichhaya... I have to go the other way.
I can't drop you there.
I have to go down South.
That's enough nonsense. Just come.
You don't get it.
I'll be late...
Drop me till the main road then.
Eight means not!

-Fever after the first shot? -Yes, ma'am.
I see.
-Here. -Thank you.
Why is he crying?
I don't know.
Let me see.
He's always crying.
But stopped as soon as you took him.
There's a way to handle babies.
Of course, he'll cry otherwise.
Did you feed him?
What's wrong, baby?
There's that smile!
MATRICHHAYA COTTAGE INDUSTRIES AND TRAINING CENTRE
Okay then...
Please come inside.
-It's nice and bright. -Bride?
The campus is nice and bright.
Yes... But...
The campus isn't going anywhere.
I don't have the time today. You go ahead.
What are you talking about?
We have time till afternoon.
We should see her off.
Good to know where she works.
Unless there's some other issue...
How--
How are you?
Good.
Very good.
Sometimes...
Sometimes, we switch to English.
Come.
Oh God! Are all your hassles reserved just for me?
Marium is a very nice person.
Why are you walking behind me? And what are you muttering?
What?
I want to introduce you to Marium.
Oh... Uh...
-It's all women, right? -Yes.
A man shouldn't go in.
Look, I've dropped you off. Now I've to go.
What are you talking about?
Man or woman, it doesn't matter.
Let me introduce you to her.
I'm lead a bohemian life. No fixed identity...
Sure.
Now come.
It's really important, huh?
Eight means not!
Oh God, please save me.
Once you meet her, you'll know she's very nice.
Marium's gone to the city.
New hire?
Yes.
What's your name?
Sundori.
Sundori Khatoon.
You're beautiful. Living up to your name.
I'm Noorjahan.
I'll show you the ropes. I'll be your mentor.
-I've heard a lot about you. -Oh?
And that's my husband.
My husband, Ali Abbas.
Came to drop me off.
